Here's an update, in case anyone was wondering what I did!!

I decided to drill and tap my steering arms to accept those polyurethane bumpers (it was actually my neighbor who did the drilling and tapping!!) I finally reinstalled the arms and it looks like it should work perfectly!! I'm a little curious as to what the "stock" turns are for the steering wheel, lock to lock?? Can anyone check and let me know?? The tires are about 1- 1 1/2" from hitting the frame now, which is a big improvement!!

Here are a couple pics of what it looks like.....

Good of your neighbor to do that, they look good. If you want less turning radius, you can shave the stops down some too, plenty there to take a 1/2" off, if needed.
No clue on the turns. Mine has been apart for 6 years now...
